In this episode, Dinesh undertakes a futile search for Biden’s brain, and then spells out the implications for democracy when the man who is elected to run things is quite obviously not running things. Pondering America’s petty obsessions and China’s global ambitions, Dinesh asks whether China is now in the position that America was in the 1950s, ready to take over the world.  Investigative journalist Sharyl Attkisson joins Dinesh to talk about the decline of investigative journalism, and what she discovered on our southern border.  Drawing on African American anthropologist Elijah Anderson’s work on the streets of Philadelphia, Dinesh reveals the perverse logic of cultural dysfunction in the black underclass.  Also Dinesh spells out the new American class structure, with a class at the top that pretends to belong to no class at all.
